Sharing an IBM DS5000, IBM DS4000, or IBM DS3000 systems between a host and Storwize V3500
You can share an IBM® DS5000™, IBM DS4000®, or IBM DS3000 system between a host and a Storwize® V3500 clustered system.
The IBM
DS5000, IBM
DS4000, and IBM DS3000 function known as
partitioning must be used to separate groups of logical units that are directly
attached to hosts or groups of hosts from the logical units that are accessed by the Storwize V3500 system.
Note: The Storwize V3500 partition must either contain all the
host ports of the Storwize V3500 system that are
connected to the SAN or are zoned to have access to the storage system ports. For example,
configure so that each Storwize V3500 host bus
adapter (HBA) port on Storwize V3500 are able to
see at least one port on storage system A and one port on storage system B.
